Report Maintenance Window
The Report Maintenance window allows you to assign security to reports, define the number of
copies of a report to retain, and assign report descriptions. Security masks can be defined to allow
specific users or a group of users to view a report. Report descriptions are displayed on the Select
Report window when viewing reports within a folder.
VISTA does not allow anyone to view a report they have not been authorized to view. When
security has not been assigned to a report, any user is allowed to view it. For reports with sensitive
information, you must assign a security mask to prevent unauthorized users from reading them.
The Report Maintenance window is shown below. To display this window, enter the VISTAMNT
program and press F1, Report Maint from the VISTA Plus Maintenance window.
